This is a nice list, but how do they actually compare to the pro treatments?

These are some very nice alternatives to pricey spa and doctor visits. You can also exercise your face, neck, and mouth on your own to improve the tone, reduce wrinkles, and plump your pout (simple "Google" for exercises).

I definitely want to try the red carpet peel kit. It is kind of pricey but it is on my want list.

The Sephora 3 in 1 looks good. I'll have to give it a try.

Some of these should not be done at home, like the chemical peel. You must have a professional do it. You can scar yourself for life.

Spa and salon treatment can get pretty expensive!

Some cool products but that lip plumping thing is just frightening.

I agree that many services, epically peels at a salon, but, I have seen too many problems. Many clients think more means better. Some of these products should not be used too often, and I have found some clients over use these products and end up hurting the skin. I have one client, she insists that she should exfoliate daily. She is not a young person, and her chin is very dry at times, and you can see the verticals lines. I would ask her how many times are you exfoliating...oh last night and today, my face felt oily... If that is what exfoliating does, imagine some of these people with home peels...I see it. I understand many people can do it and can limit themselves, but, many companies promote the safety and really do not emphasize the problems that can occur. PLEASE...just follow up with a skin care professional; you can even contact me for some advice, rather safe then sorry!!
